I am having problems with getting squidGuard to run sanely and suspect
file and directory settings may be a problem.
The SquidGuard FAQ says:
When run under Squid, squidGuard is run with the same user and
group ID as Squid (cache_effective_user and
cache_effective_group in squid.conf). The
squidGuard configuration and database files must be readable
for this user and/or group and the squidGuard log directory
must be writable for this user and/or group. If not squidGuard
will go into the "pass all for all" emergency mode.
To put this into effect I have user: squid and group: squid as the
owner and group for all squidGuard files and directories and did:
chmod 440 squidGuard.conf
chmod -R 440 /path/to/squidguard/db
chmod 660 /path/to/squidguard.log
chmod 660 /path/to/blocked.log
Is this correct?
Thanks for any help anyone can give me on this,
Nigel
